The Twerp Belgian Blond Ale

Blonde Ale - Belgian Blonde / Golden

Common Crown Brewing Co

(3.7/5)

ABV: 6.2% - IBU: 25

This Belgian, though at 6.2% ABV, has a very light body a spicy and herbal aroma with flavours of black pepper, light stone fruit and herbs with a dry finish, making for an excellent thirst quencher that packs a pit of a punch.

We didn't forget anything this time, and we tweaked the recipe a bit while we were at it. The malt profile remained the same, but we tweaked the dry hop schedule a bit with the same delightful citra, simcoe and mosaic hops from last year which helped this beer with silver in the DIPA category at the Canadian Brewing Awards

The Cascadian Dark Ale is an American dark ale with medium hop bitterness to balance out the dark malty sweetness. It features a northwest hop profile allowing for citrus and resin flavor components to really shine. Though dark in color, this beer has a delicate roasted character adds complexity without taking center stage.

We took our delicious stout base beer and added loads of cold brewed dark roast coffee from one of America's top roasters- Counter Culture Coffee in Durham, NC. Because no hearty Canadian breakfast doesn't include maple syrup, we added loads of it too.

Conically Hopped Wild NEIPA.Made with Sacc Trois yeasts then conically hopped. That means it was dry-hopped every single day during fermentation. No idea what we're talking about? All you need to know is this beer is stupid juicy. You're welcome.

Conceptually this is a new idea for us. We brewed a Citra Pale Ale which was fermented mad hot with Kviek (Kuh-wike) yeast. The yeast is doing most of the work here, as it shows off this incredible lemon and lime juice flavour and aroma with a tiny bit of acidity. Hoppy and fruity? Doye.

A bounty of coconut aromas mix with chocolate malts in a mound of dark, easy drinking brew. Almond Joy is difficult to use as a descriptor. If there were other coconut candy bars we could think of while writing this we would have mentioned those too. Watch for this delectable brew at a growler bar near you!

A chocolate stout conditioned on two additions of raspberries and cocoa nibs. Aged in a Merlot barrel. The red-wine flavour accentuates the jamminess of the raspberries, while the chocolate makes this beer super smooth.

In the Night Kitchen, beer and food worlds collide. We take a full bodied milk stout, and judiciously layer flavour upon flavour to create a beer that is like dessert in a glass, while also tasting like a well-balanced beer. Hazelnut, almond, cinnamon bark, vanilla and custom-roasted cacao beans from Calgary’s own bean to bar experts McGuire Chocolate bring this decadent beer to life. This beer was brewed in collaboration with CRAFT Southcentre for their community tap to raise funds for the MS Society. It is served at CRAFT under the name Hard Wired Pastry Stout.

Silver medal winner at the Alberta Beer Awards 2018, this delicious New England style IPA is bursting with big citrus and tropical fruit. The haze this beer presents is due to a high percent of flaked oats in the mash and the excessive amount of dry hopping, during and after fermentation. A dry finish, just enough bitterness and big fruit notes combine in this juicy brew. Enjoy!

A delightful New England pale ale, dry hopped with a big dose of citra and mosaic hops. We also added the equivalent of 700lbs of apricot and passionfruit to 750L of beer to accentuate the flavour profile of the beer

Ape index is the measure of a person's arm span against their height-- Ape Index Barleywine is the measure of how far we could push the brewhouse here at O.T.! We maxed the mash tun with hundreds of kilos of choice Alberta malted barley before boiling the wort for six (long) hours with lots of fresh Columbus and Cascade. This beer has a huge, syrupy body with notes of candied marmalade, Christmas tree, and a bit of sticky toffee pudding.

You don't have to be a member of the peerage to enjoy Lord Grey's Stout. Let the soft taste walk with you along the cobblestones of London as you enter the public house, join a game of darts, and hold on to that pint. We've added a hefty dose of the house blend Earl Grey tea from Sorso Espresso & Wine Bar to add to the aromatics and flavour in this dark brew. Guaranteed not to get you lost in the fog.

Coffee is usually an afterthought when added to beer... so instead we brewed a beer with coffee in mind! Collaborating with Monogram Coffee, we designed a very neutral blonde ale and then dosed it with brewhouse-brewed hyper strong coffee after fermentation to lock in the origin of the bean we chose - natural-processed ARDI from Ethiopia. This is an ongoing collaboration with Monogram that will rotate new and exciting coffees through OT Brewing Co. and into our beers.

Sit back and relax, you'll be tempted by the blonde colour and a hint of spice on the nose. On your first sip your mind wanders, did you forget something? As the heat starts to build you realize you should have packed sunscreen for this trip. Not uncomfortable and yet unforgettable... Jalapeno. The heat begins to fade, that California Sunburn is going to keep you coming back every time.

Robust Porter with a dominant roasted malt backbone, brewed with milk sugar, vanilla beans, and cold pressed coffee from Rebel Bean Coffee added in at kegging. With just enough English hops to balance out the beverage, this is like drinking a coffee cake that can give you more than one kind of buzz. Drink it as the sun goes down and again as the sun comes up.

Fitzsimmons First stout comes just in time for spring! Brewed in the middle of the Canadian Polar Vortex, this beer comes out bold with flavor! Using Red Shed Chocolate malts and Origin Munich malts that bring out roasty, creamy and lots of chocolate! Enjoy!

Canada's favourite treat, liquified. We added graham crackers during the mash of the already huge malt bill, we boiled it till sticky, and then came the Nanaimo! We added coconut, cocoa nibs, vanilla beans and lactose during fermentation to create a deliciously sweet and rich stout that packs a serious punch at 8.1%. It is amazing and it wont be around long.

With generous amounts of roast grains, our stout has subtle hints of coffee. Nitrogen provides a creamy mouth feel, and oats are used to give a silky smoothness. A little bit of "milk" sugar leaves this stout lingering sweet on the tongue. Coffee, oats, and milk? Sounds like breakfast to me!

Early in the 21st Century, the Zero Issue Corporation advanced beer evolution into the NEMESIS phase- a beer virtually unparalleled to drink. NEMESIS was superior in aroma and flavor but not equal in clarity, to those that came before. With intense grapefruit, mango, passionfruit and citrus notes and refreshing drinkability, Nemesis ushered in a new order.

Snowsquall Lager rings the bell at 6.2% alc./vol and 22 IBU. All of the barley in this batch was grown in Alberta by the fine folks at Hamill Farms and malted by Red Shed Malting. You'll get a chance to taste a brew crafted exclusively with the Newdale barley variety in two forms, both as a base malt and as a high dried "Rocky Mountain Malt". These malts are balanced against a hearty dose of late hops with traditional German and Czech hop varieties. Cozy up, you’re about to be snowed in!

A hazy non-typical IPA with a healthy dose of Lactose to thicken the body and increase the mouthfeel. Large quantities of late boil hop additions produce big tropical and citrus character while a generous amount of peach bring this beer to life. Finally we added pure vanilla extract to round this beer out and really give it a true milk shake feel.

A mid-strength imperial stout featuring the largest and most complex grain bill to ever enter the O.T. mash tun, a three-hour boil, a significant hop drop in the whirlpool, and a conservative addition of whole Tahitian vanilla beans after fermentation to tie it all together. We get notes of milk chocolate-covered raisins, soft black liquorice, and mellow vanilla cola poking through a chewy, creamy body with refined Columbus hop character. Drink fresh or cellar away!

Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day 2018 welcomed women from the local beer industry to brew with us for the fourth year in a row! This year's brew is a Double IPA with a big nose and huge taste. We've hopped at every step with Cascade, Palisade, Chinook , Mosaic, Simcoe and Citra for a beer that is worthy of its name. We hope you enjoy drinking it as much as we have enjoyed brewing and canning it for you! A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this beer are used to establish the Pink Boots Bursary. This bursary helps women enrolled in the Olds College Brewmaster & Brewery Operations Management Course.

Our rotating "2C" dry-hopped Pale Ale series focuses on the "C" hops. We explore the fruity, earthy and spicy flavours our favorite "C" hops have to offer. Each month we brew a new batch with different hops! Whether it is Citra, Chinook, Columbus, Cascade, Centennial, Cashmere, Challenger, etc. These brews are hoppy enough for IPA lovers but still aproachable for the timid!

Creamy, smooth, mild citrus notes, and lots of rich coffee flavour from the generous coffee addition courtesy of @devils_head_coffee. The Ghost is a beautiful wilderness area just west of the city where our friends from @devils_head_coffee love to play. So we named this beer after their love!

Brewed with oats, acidulated malt, and coriander in the boil. We then fermented it hot with a lovely wild yeast called Sacch Trois to tease out some fruit. Later it was dry hopped with Cryo Citra, El Dorado, Amarillo and two cases of orange zest.

A collaboration between O.T. Brewing Company and Model Milk that fuses brewing and culinary creativity... this project began by inoculating wheat-based stout wort with lactobacillus cultured on rhubarb stalks in the Model Milk kitchen. Before the end of fermentation, we added 60kg of reduced Alberta-grown Hutterite raspberries to the beer. The result is a tart, light-bodied session stout with plenty of jammy, seedy raspberry character that is extremely drinkable and food-friendly.

A silver medal winner at the Alberta Beer Awards 2018, our Porter is a roasty brew.

The perfect combination of flaked oats, brown, chocolate, crystal and black malts mash together to create some big roasty notes, dark chocolate and fresh brewed coffee. This is a smooth drinker and one of our proudest creations!

A double-dry hopped version of our Flagstick Hazy Pale Ale with one of our favourite hops-- the mighty Simcoe. Look for notes of even riper pineapple, a bit of dewey forest, and a hint of steeped orange pekoe tea.

This is for your endless summer love- a time when you just sway in hammocks and daydream until sunset. The Spirit of Summer bursts rays of sweet grapefruit and gin botanicals, to make this wheat beer one a refuge to enjoy under the canopy. You’ll wish that summer could always be here.

The sociable series, like welcoming a good friend into town for a quick visit, this beer’s here only for a limited time.

At Freehold Brewing Co., we believe in a dedication to craft, a connection to place, and a focus on innovation.

Triple Berry Milkshake Sour IPA. Brewed with milk sugar and then soured with various lacto strains, we added equal parts raspberry, blackberry and blueberry puree to the fermentation and the dry hopped heavily with Idaho 7.

Welcome the change of seasons with Guavamorphology, an ultra-refreshing kettle-soured gose packed to the rafters with juiced pink guavas and Ekuanot hops to create an aromatic citrus fruit bomb!

So switch gears and step away from winter into this lacto-soured marvel of hop fruited funk!

A mash up English pale malt, Munich, C40, Carafa and Roasted Barley providing a solid malt backbone. Our bittering pellet hop addition are Centennial and our whirlpool pellet hop additions are Cascade, Amarillo and Mosaic. We then dry hop with Hopzoil essential hop oils, Cascade & Chinook.This Black IPA is dominated with citrus, grassy and grapefruit flavors from the hops and roasty, chocolate notes from the malt. It is capped off with a dry, lingering finish due to the use of Roasted Barley.Dark, creamy, resinous and just a little bit of sweetness. A little different then your average Black IPA - and its meant to be.

The Baltic Porter lives outside the village and makes no apologies about it. This beer is ripe with complex flavours such as dried fruit, licorice and molasses. The lasting memory the porter leaves with you is more reminiscent of a fine bourbon than an ale. Tread lightly.

Wild Rose Brewery follows the tradition of their fall seasonal, AF23 Pale Ale, eastward to a new, version called WR4 PALE ALE —representative of its birthplace in the production facility in southeast Calgary. This unfiltered pale ale is brewed with Golden Naked Oats and flaked oats that provide a pleasant cloudiness and silky mouthfeel. The focus is on the flavour and aroma of citrusy Centennial hops and tropical, fruity El Dorado hops.

This style of beer became the first mass-produced beer during the industrial revolution in London; it became known as Porter after the common labourers in the city. The style all but disappeared after WWI but has recently reappeared as part of the Craft Beer movement. Made from traditional English malts and hops, this beer is dark and complex with hints of chocolate, toffee, and bready caramel.

An aromatic, style bending approach to the pale ale. The Plainsbreaker is bursting with late addition hops, boasting a huge tropical flavour and aroma. Well balanced, interesting and very approachable, this beer is for every adventure.

Brewed to satisfy the predatory instincts of every true beer lover, red in both tooth and claw.

War horses changed history whether they were being used for reconnaissance, cavalry charges, raiding, communication, or supply. Horse cavalry began to be phased out after World War I, though a few horse cavalry units were still used into World War II, especially as scouts. Though the United States Army Special Forces used horses in battle during the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan. This pale ale showcases Citra hops at their finest, light in color, tropical and danky notes.

Every once in a while a LEGEND comes around and revolutionizes an industry! For craft beer canning that legend is Jamie Gordon! A home-brew shop owner who, back in 1999, handbuilt a small manual canner for home brewers. The rest, as they say, is history! Jamie spent 16 years tirelessly devoted to traveling the globe to install, educate, and help every single craft brewery possible benefit from canning their craft beer! Tool Shed is one of those breweries and is honoured to have called Jamie our friend! We love that Jamie taught his boys, “Stop stealing my beer and learn how to brew it!!” so this stout is for Jamie!

In order to mirror that classy, GQ, flat cap wearin’ style of Jamie, this stout is deeply roasty and rich with a surprising presence of hops and a beautiful, smooth, dry finish. If ever a stout were to rock a flat cap like Jamie did, this would be that beer!

A rock solid hazy pale ale presented in true hazy fashion, this brew showcases some new school and old school hop varieties. Expect a blend of tropical and citrus aroma and signature "juicy" notes on the palate...and some subtle cotton candy and bubblegum. 9:40 refers to the time of day we always dry hop this beer, double dry hop to be exact. Enjoy!

Big berry sweetness over a creamy sweet base and a crisp fruity finish. More satisfying than slapping a clown and tastier than a kiss from Willy Wonka while you stick your head in a Lions mouth. As the greatest beer drinkers on earth, Something Creamy Cream Soda Ale will make you want to run away and join the circus.

Don't let the colour throw you, this true to style sweet stout has a surprisingly light body balanced with a kiss of roast and sweet finish. This beer pairs nicely with most any salty snack (especially oysters) and is served equally on hot summer and blustery autumn days.

This is a beer that embodies adventure. A departure from the classic IPA, it has a deep red colour from Alberta’s world class barley, balanced by a notorious line up of hops. All this packaged in a beer designed for the drinker who has their eyes on the summit.

Our first public release of a Prairie dog barrel-aged beer. Starting as our house Porter, we aged the beer for several months in a french oak barrel that had previously been used to age red wine (style unknown). During its life in the barrel, the beer picked up loads of vanilla and stone fruit character (cherry), and underwent a secondary fermentation with wine yeast, drying it out significantly. To sweeten the beer backup, we blended it with more of the straight porter and added a hint of natural vanilla to round out the edges.

You brew a great beer. Then you come up with a great name for that beer. Then you run into legal issues when it turns out that name is already taken by folks who don’t play nice. So you say to hell with it. And you change the name: Legal Issues.

Nutty, fruity, toffee, molasses and caramel notes on the nose followed by light coffee, caramel and delicious nutty flavours on your palate. Hopped solely with EKG, it provides an earthy and grassy undertone. This brew is a smooth drinker, has a sweet finish due the residual sweetness of the Scottish yeast and is one of the most popular beer here at Origin.

Bold and formidable, the Leviathan packages deep, dark flavours with a full mouthfeel. Some roast flavours, coffee undertones, a hint of caramel and a viscous mouthfeel. It’s heavy, but sessionable for those who believe in themselves.

If you could thank anyone for the amazing recent explosion of craft breweries opening in our province, who would it be? We'd like to thank Neil Bamford who, along with his amazing partner Tom Corbett, run The Vineyard home-brew shop. Where else does a craft brewing revolution start but at the local home-brew shop? Neil seems to be fuelled by a mission of turning home-brewers into pro-brewers. This one is for Neil. The beer is a sessionable Oatmeal Pale ale utilizing Cascade as a single hop variety which imparts sweet floral citrus aromas of grapefruit and limes balanced with slight spicy pine notes on the palate. At 4.5% with a balanced crisp bitterness, this beer is a PERFECT companion for summer patio session, but then again so is Neil.

This balanced golden copper coloured IPA has a big hop aroma of citrus and passionfruit which combines with resinous and pine hop flavors leading to a softly bitter finish. This is the clear choice for hop-heads!

Tart with a biscuit/bread note on the finish. The ginger greets you right up front but is subtle and complimentary to the sour notes. Not overly aggressive in its pallet. This beer is a perfect summer drink. Would pair well with cucumber, peaches, salads, and hot summer nights. Very mild aroma. Notes of lemon peel, coriander, orange, toast, ginger, lemongrass, and pineapple.

A WELL BALANCED IPA WITH A DEEP GOLD COLOUR. BISCUIT AND CARAMEL MALT NOTES LEAD INTO LIGHT TROPICAL FRUIT NOTES AND A HEAVY PINE FINISH. THE MODERATE HOP BITTERNESS MAKES THIS AN EASY CHOICE FOR IPA NEWBIES AND VETERANS ALIKE.

For our first ever collaboration beer we didn’t search far for a collaborator. We got together with our amazing neighbours and friends at Banded Peak. Those guys know how to make amazing hoppy beers so we chose to make a NEIPA (New England or North-East IPA). The idea was to make a juicy, fruity, hazy and smooth IPA with tons of hop flavor and aroma. Loads of Amarillo, Citra, Mosaic and Azacca were added to this beer including a double dry hop. This resulted in a potent bomb of hops with a pleasant mouthfeel and smooth bitterness. Get it while it’s fresh, we doubt this one will last long!

A collaboration between Origin Malting & Brewing, Prairie Dog Brewing and Typeface Coffee Roasters, this brew has some serious flavor. The base beer is a 5.5% Kolsch with a hefty dose of coffee added at time of packaging.

Keep a sturdy grip on this hand-wrought ale. It is an alloy of premium two-row Alberta barley, roasted to a black malt and infused with quantities of potent, bitter hops. Stalwart and bold, it will douse the coal-fired thirst, slake the spirit and clear the soot from the teeth.

Named after a rock album from the 70’s that kinda sucks. It’s a kettle sour thats been fermented with 560lbs of naturally sweet BC cherries which just about overflowed the fermentor. It features a delicate tartness as well as the super obvious sweet cherry flavour and aroma. It’ll also stain your lips like a popsicle and people will think you’ve been smoochin’.

This Belgian, though at 6.2% ABV, has a very light body a spicy and herbal aroma with flavours of black pepper, light stone fruit and herbs with a dry finish, making for an excellent thirst quencher that packs a pit of a punch.

Veterans blend hops strike again in this aromatic and balanced IPA. The higher IBU is hidden by excessive dry hopping.

Brewed in collaboration by Banded Peak Brewing, Paddy's Barbecue and Brewery and Canada Malting. The beer was brewed using Canada Malting's new Alberta Heritage Select malt. This beer is a salted sour ale fermented with peach puree and dry hopped with Amarillo. Tart, fruity and refreshing.

An edgy, modern example of the American IPA category that bursts with lemon, orange and tangerine fruit character. A generous blend of Amarillo, Lemondrop and Mosaic hops are added at the end of boil and through multiple dry-hop steps. In spite of the great hop character, bitterness is balanced to allow the underlying malt flavour to shine through in this dry-finishing beer.

In the German beer family there are lots of strange and interesting cousins, but only one stately older uncle with a long and storied history like this. This style of beer has been around for hundreds of years, produced throughout Bavaria before the lighter Oktoberfest and Pilsner styles were even invented. Made with a blend of light and dark Munich malts and lagered for a minimum of 30 days.

After a long day’s work sweating over a kettle, our Coulee monk could use a nice strong beer to cool off with. Our Belgian Trappist style Dubbel gives way to banana esters on the nose, subtle fruit notes, and a light-bodied maltiness. At 7.5%, this brew will definitely help the thoughts of a tough work day fade away!

Clear, amber and dry, this modern example of an American-style IPA bursts with tangerine, lemon and a resinous grapefruit character overlaid upon a tasty base of Alberta malts. Amarillo, Lemondrop and Mosaic hops are generously added late in the boil and throughout several massive dry-hop steps. In spite of the intense hop character, bitterness is balanced to allow the underlying malt flavour to shine through in this dry-finishing beer.

We set out to make a porter like no other. A porter that wasn't too sweet but rather somewhat spicy. What better way to add spice than to add a healthy dose of rye malt! You will find this beer to be a great companion to the cooler fall nights in Alberta.

Nutty, medium body, mild sweetness, with a little sour raspberry pop for the finish. Our owner/brewer's sister and brother in law, Mrs. Brown and Mr. Dingle, helped create this wonderful concoction...and we just added in the berry for good measure.

Happy birthday to us! This special 1st anniversary beer is a kettle soured stout with sweet cherries added during fermentation. It’s a complex mix of chocolate, cherry and tartness. Dark colour with a hint of cherry red and a beautiful pink head. Enjoy and thanks for all the support during our first year!

To understand the space this beer occupies in the brewing landscape, all you have to do is walk its boundaries. Begin at the corner that values flavour above all else.

THIS IS DARK AND FULL BODIED BEER. MALT FORWARD WITH NOTES OF BISCUIT, COFFEE, CHOCOLATE AND ROAST. THOUGH ROBUST IN CHARACTER THIS BROWN DRINKS FAIRLY LIGHT MAKING AN ANY OCCASION BEER BUT ITS ESPECIALLY SATISFYING ON COOL EVENINGS.

Named after the boisterous Gunnison’s Prairie Dog of the four-corners region, our red ale takes cues from the class Irish Red style, employing a hint of roasted barley for colour and taste atop a base of sweeter caramel malts with a deliberate underlying bitterness that keeps the beer palatable and adds a pleasant aftertaste, but includes a late dose of Chinook hops for a spicier, American-style finish. Our house yeast keeps the beer fairly dry with a malty backbone, making it easy to have another.

Lighter in taste, lower in alcohol, dark in color, this american dark ale is aimed at gateway beer lovers. Subtle roast and chocolate notes and low alcohol poises it for crush-ability. Named after; The McDonnell F-101 Voodoo was a supersonic jet fighter which served the United States Air Force & the Royal Canadian Air Force. Initially designed as a long-range bomber escort, the Voodoo was instead developed as a nuclear-armed fighter-bomber and as a reconnaissance aircraft. An F-101A set a number of world speed records for jet powered aircraft, including fastest airspeed, attaining 1,943.4 km/hr on December 1957.The B model of the Voodoo was later developed as interim interceptor aircraft. Canadian examples remained in service until 1984.

This IPL combines the clean drinkability of a Pale Lager with the bold hoppiness of a West Coast IPA. Citrus and tropical fruit flavours are prominent with a sweet floral aroma. Hopped like an IPA and fermented like a lager this is both refreshing and flavourful.

Considered the perfect farmhouse sipper in Belgium in the 19th century, table ales are low enough in alcohol that you could have more than one, but still flavourful enough to drink at meal time. We've slightly soured this table ale to add a twist to the traditional taste that's tart but not puckering, then we infused chamomile and lavender leaves to give it some character. This all-season beer is perfect for getting some relief from the summer heat or for being comforted on a winter night in the cabin.

This beer breaks most of the rules we learned in beer school: it’s hazy, it’s sweet, and it doesn’t fit neatly into a style category--but, damn, is it ever delicious. Huge flavour without the intensity of an IPA; pillowy soft with a mouthfeel that can only be described as voluptuous. Even those who claim not to like IPAs will love this beer.

The Brosé is a brut IPA with flavours inspired by the bubbly-fruitiness of a sparkling rosé, finished on Australian Shiraz grape must and a combination of rare and ultra-delicious hops; this brew is absurdly crushable, bright, bone-dry and enjoyably effervescent.

Our head brewer, Lisa wanted to make a saison reminiscent of the subtle characteristics of white wine grapes. We used Huell Melon and Hallertau Blanc hops, which impart the fruity notes Lisa was looking for. We've also used Rocky Mountain malt from Red Shed Malting to impart a unique malt flavour. Enjoy!

A walnut colored English Brown Ale with a fruity, bready, and nutty nose. It has layered flavors of caramel and light chocolate with a graham cracker presence and slightly dry finish. This has been the working person’s beer for a hundred years.

Richly hopped lighter bodied India session ale. Fort Calgary established Calgary where the bow river and Elbow River joined forces to bring life giving mountain waters to the Alberta Prairie. Now Bow River Brewing & Elite Brewing have together crafted an India Session Ale using our local waters and Alberta Barley.

We grow our very own Alberta barley. Then we harvest and malt that Alberta barley. Then we brew those barley malts with Warrior, Mosaic, Citra and El Dorado hops to craft the finest IPA across the flatlands: True Prairie IPA. Look for citrus and tropical combined with earthy and dank west coast notes. A sturdy malt backbone balances it all out. Yum

A big hoppy IPA weighing in at 7.5% alc./vol. golden with a slight dry hop haze it has a big citrusy nose from the generous dose of a brand new experimental hop variety, the so far un-named, # 07270. Trailhead is made with a touch of malted rye and light crystal malt to give a supporting role to the crisp bitterness expected in a good west coast style IPA.

A light, unfiltered wheat ale with raspberries, this is a refreshing balanced beer.

The combination of tartness and sweetness derived from the raspberries create a light, crisp, yet fruity palate. The rich golden colour is a combination of specialty malts and real raspberries added to the beer.

The haze is a result of the yeast still lingering in suspension. An enduring favourite, this is a pleasant beer that is enjoyable either on the patio or after skiing. Available in bottles so you can take your fruity favourite home with you.

A Belgian style White IPA with notes of orange, lemon and coriander. We used an Ardennes yeast to give the beer notes of clove and spice as well. Brewed in celebration of Alberta 112 birthday and showcasing Senator Patrick Burns, Albertas greatest citizen.

This is our take on the classic German Oktoberfest style beer. This amber lager has been cold aged for 6 weeks to ensure ultimate smooth finish. The emphasis is squarely on the malt for this beer. In addition to Pilsner, Pale, Vienna and Munich malts we’ve added some Beechwood smoked malt; this lends a pleasant mild smoky flavour and aroma to the beer.

We’ve tried to stay true to the original Oktoberfest beers noted for their full bodied, smooth character. These lager beers should have a nice bready/caramel malt character but still finish dry and be easy to drink. By incorporating the Northern German technique of using smoked malt, we’ve added a layer of complexity to the beer.

All of the organic barley malt, hops and yeast come from west of the 100th Meridian–thus the name. It is a truly Canadian craft brew that combines the “best of the west” ingredients, a unique recipe and classic Mill Street smoothness.
